CVE-2004-1422


Description:
James Bercegay has reported some vulnerabilities in WHM AutoPilot, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting, compromise a vulnerable system and disclose system information.

1) Input passed to the "site_title" and "http_images" parameter in "header.php" isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site.

2) Input passed to the "server_inc" parameter isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources.

3) It is possible to reveal sensitive information because "phpinfo.php" calls the "phpinfo()" function.

Successful exploitation of 1 and 2 requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

Solution:
Update to version 2.5.0.
